"Friday Night Lights" has been a successful weekly television series about high school football in Texas, but Southern California trainer Jesse Mendoza has been starring in his own version.
"They used to call me 'Friday Night Jesse'," Mendoza said with a laugh recently of his ability to shine under the lights on Friday night at Hollywood Park, where he is stabled.
On a Friday night in 2007, Mendoza scored his first stakes victory in the Harry Henson with Hurry Home Warren when the 3-year-old hurried home in stakes-record time of 1:08.60 for six furlongs on turf. LINK...Click here to read the complete article »»

CHRB NEWS RELEASE
Subject: Review of CHRB Actions and Discussions 1-15-10
ARCADIA, CA -- The California Horse Racing Board conducted its regular meeting Friday, January 15, at Santa Anita Park. Chairman John Harris presided. Vice Chairman David Israel and Commissioners Bo Derek, Keith Brackpool, Jesse Choper, Jerry Moss, and Richard Rosenberg were in attendance. During the meeting:

  • California racing commissioners unanimously elected Keith Brackpool their new chairman and elected David Israel vice chairman for 2010. Outgoing Chairman John Harris said he was not seeking reelection and, in fact, intends to resign from the Board sometime in the next few months in order to devote more time to his business — Harris Ranch — and in waging what he described as a "major water battle" in the San Joaquin Valley and other parts of California. He said he has pressing commitments as chair of the Pacific Legal Foundation, an advocacy group protecting property rights as well as other Constitutional freedoms. He was first appointed to the CHRB by Governor Gray Davis on November 9, 2000, reappointed by Governor Davis in 2003, and most recently reappointed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to a term that expires September 26, 2011.
Incoming Chairman Brackpool was appointed by Governor Schwarzenegger to the CHRB on September 24, 2009. Vice Chairman Israel was appointed to the CHRB by Governor Schwarzenegger on July 9, 2008. Additional biographical information for both commissioners is provided at the end of this report. LINKClick here to read complete report »»
